Lactase 30 capsules YAMAMOTO

Lactase is a dietary supplement from Yamamoto Research containingthe enzyme lactaseandfennel extract, developed to treat digestive issues related to lactose consumption. Lactase helps support thedigestion of lactoseinindividuals who have difficulty digesting (or are intolerant to) this particular sugar. Fennel extract also promotesregular gastrointestinal motility,the elimination of gas,andoveralldigestive function.

Lactase is the enzyme that breaks down lactose (a disaccharide) into its two constituent sugars: galactose and glucose.Lactose intolerance—defined as the body’s total or partial inability to produce enough lactase to properly digest this sugar—is becoming increasingly common. In Italy, it is estimated that about 50% of the population is lactose intolerant, although the severity varies.

Lactose is the main sugar found in milk (cow’s, goat’s, buffalo’s, and donkey’s) and accounts for about 98% of all the sugars in milk; it is also present in many of its derivatives. This sugar is also frequently used as a food additive in various widely consumed foods (such as baked goods or certain sausages), and is therefore very common on our tables.

The clinical picture associated with lactose intolerance is characterized by uncomfortable cramps and abdominal pain, bloating, a heavy feeling in the stomach, a sensation of fullness, diarrhea, or constipation—all symptoms that occur fairly quickly after consuming foods containing lactose. Symptoms can vary from person to person, however, with manifestations of varying severity and intensity, and may also include headaches, fatigue, nausea, or skin rashes.

Lactase contains300 mg of digestive enzyme with an enzymatic activity of 30,000 FCC(Food Chemical Complex)ALU(Acid Lactase Unit) and120 mg of fennel extractperdaily dose. A single capsule, to be taken in advance when you plan to eat a lactose-containing meal, contains 150 mg of lactase, or 15,000 FCC:this dose allows you to digest approximately 5 g of lactose(found, for example, in 100 ml of cow’s milk). However, there are specific reference tables indicating the lactose content (in g) of each food, so that lactase intake can be adjusted accordingly. Lattasi contains120 mg of fennel extract, which, thanks to its ability to counteract intestinal gas, works together with lactase to reduce unpleasant symptoms.

But can simply taking lactase supplements help people digest lactose more effectively?It appearsso, because lactase supplementation in human studies has been shown to reduce hydrogen levels in breath (a sign of fermentation) and various symptoms associated with lactose intolerance, such as flatulence, bloating, abdominal pain, and diarrhea.

However, it’s important to note that taking lactase after the fact doesn’t necessarily eliminate symptoms, soit’s best to take it in advance.

Lactose intolerance is becoming increasingly common among the general population, especially in Europe. Lactase is the ideal solution for preventing those bothersome gastrointestinal symptoms associated with lactose intolerance.
